Default 2008 5.3 supercharger

Not really interested in it yet, but very curious haha. Im more interested in having a warranty at this point but down the road i know my hunger for power will take over. what are the options out right now? any chance the new vette supercharger will be able to bolt onto the truck 5.3/6.0? if im not mistaken the supercharged vette has a 6.0 and not the 7.2?

The supercharged Corvette is a 6.2L, and I highly doubt that its' supercharger would bolt up.

Are you looking for a centrifugal or positive displacement supercharger?

Because if you're looking for a centrifugal, procharger makes a kit for the silverado.

I just bought a 2010 Silverado 1500 5.3. I want to kick it up. Is a supercharger the right thing? What else can I do?
Thanks

I would go for a turbo charger instead of a supercharger.
even though miniscule, a supercharger puts wear on an engine.
you could also install a big bore kit, you could upgrade the throttle bodies,
you could put throttle body spacers in, you could put a cold air intake on it too.
